At a sports boarding school, Camille is a gifted young boxer admired by everyone. His friendship with Matteo offers balance to his intense training, until a sudden accident changes everything. Valéry Carnoy’s first feature, awarded at Cannes’ Directors’ Fortnight, explores adolescence rather than sport. Themes of solitude, friendship, and self-discovery dominate this sensitive portrait. Samuel Kircher gives a magnetic performance as a boy caught between strength and vulnerability.
